The Muskegon River runs through this stretch like the main artery it is—every listing mentions it, every home seems oriented toward it, and for good reason. You get riverfront or near-riverfront living at prices that elsewhere would barely cover a garage, with room to breathe: half-acre lots, two-lot parcels, walkout basements opening onto water views and fireplace-warmed living spaces designed for actually using them.
